A blessed afternoon to each and every one, and we are here at Aprille Kate 18th birthday party.

We are about to begin our program for this debut reception so please locate your respective seats and
make yourself comfortable. In behalf of the debutante’s family, I would like to thank everyone who are
with us this afternoon for gracing this momentous celebration. You may take photos and can post it to
social media using our official hashtag #AprilleGrownUpLady/#Aprilleturns18. Thank you very much.
I’ll be right back.

Ladies and gentlemen, once again a very good afternoon to all of us. Welcome to the
HOT and LEGAL PARTY of our charming debutante who is now turning into a fine lady. This is
quite a very important event in her life and she is very much honor for your presence. Like
Wendy in the movie Peter Pan, “no more fairy tale stories every night”. She is now a real
lady as she stepped onto the much higher level of what we called LIFE. Ladies and gentlemen,
sit back as we witness the spectacular afternoon of her life. Sit back as we groove, jive and let’s
enjoy her party.

My dear friends, I am JM and I’ll be your host for this afternoon grand celebration.

This afternoon, we will witness the transformation of a young girl to a beautiful lady. We
are very lucky for we are chosen to be here and be part of this momentous occasion in the
debutant's life. You see her grow up. You see her smile. You see her laugh. You see her
everything. And now you are about to see her as a grown-up lady. A lady of good heart,
character and ambition. An 18th birthday marks almost the steps from youth to young adult, with
all its relative responsibilities. So ladies and gentlemen, we would like to thank everyone for
gracing this very momentous occasion because as they say, you get to be 18, once.
